6 Take your clients’ retirement plan off pause and hit play
G5/ Q1 Fund Take your clients’ retirement plan off pause and hit play Hello, and welcome to this presentation on CI’s new G5|20 Series. G5|20 Series is a one-ticket solution for the retirement market that provides guaranteed cash flows, growth potential and protection from market volatility. My name is XXXX, and on behalf of CI, I want to thank you for taking time to learn about G5|20 Series. It is the first mutual fund of its kind in Canada and part of the CI Guaranteed Retirement Cash Flow Series. G5|20 Series is a fund that addresses key investment risks faced by investors before and during retirement. John Smith CI Investments January 2014 For Advisor Use Only

7 Guaranteed 20 Years Cash Flow 5% Cash Flow 7
G5|20 Series is the first mutual fund of its kind in Canada. After the five-year accumulation phase, G5|20 Series is guaranteed to distribute annual cash flow amounting to 5% of the Guaranteed Asset Value for 20 years while keeping exposure to equities for growth potential. G5|20 Series uses an innovative approach in which advanced risk management and investment strategies are focused on the goal of generating a stable retirement cash flow. 5% Cash Flow 7

8 Why Consider G/520 Retirement risks
Investors preparing for retirement face several risks: The risk of outliving their money. The erosion of their buying power caused by inflation. The opportunity cost of staying out of the market. Investors preparing for retirement face these risks if they continue to invest in interest-bearing securities: The risk of outliving their money. The erosion of their buying power caused by inflation. The opportunity cost of staying out of the market. 8

9 Retirement risks Baby boomers don’t have the flexibility to wait out a 15-year cycle. After major bull markets, markets historically trend sideways for a minimum of 15 years, with significant volatility. Tactical calls and equity exposure are key to investment success. Markets have been range-bound for 107 of the last 141 years. What we are seeing in this slide is that it takes a minimum of 15 years to take the excess out of the markets. Typically, when market P/Es fall to the single digits, it indicates that the excess has been taken out of the market. It is usually a sign that speculators are exhausted and have left the market and we are set up for the next bull run. We are only five years out of the market downturn of – if history is any indication, we may be looking at volatile sideways markets for at least another 10 years – not optimal for looking to withdraw from your nest egg. Investors are looking to be insulated, to a degree, from this volatility to ensure that their retirement nest egg takes them through retirement. Source: Bloomberg 9

13 Product structure Fund has 25-year lifespan – comprised of an initial five-year growth phase (the Accumulation Phase), followed by a 20-year cash flow phase (the Distribution Phase). Initially, it will have 70% exposure to equities and 30% to income and will be managed as a tactical balanced fund with diversification across Canadian, U.S. and international equity and fixed-income securities. • Five years of accumulation – actively managed to take full advantage of market opportunities and provide protection from significant market declines. As investors prepare for retirement, they will benefit from the skill of CI’s leading portfolio managers, including Signature Global Asset Management, Cambridge Global Asset Management and Harbour Advisors, who have demonstrated an ability to add value in all market conditions. • Guaranteed retirement cash flow for 20 years – in addition to growth potential and protection, investors will receive monthly guaranteed distributions equal to 5% per annum of the market value of the investment at the end of the fund’s initial five-year Accumulation Phase or the original investment, whichever is greater. The higher of these values is the Guaranteed Asset Value. In the event of significant positive market performance, and in consultation with the Protection Manager and Guarantor, CI reserves the right to review and increase the Guaranteed Asset Value. 1. Capture potential market gains for higher values and cash flow. If the fund value after five years has grown above the initial investment, the annual guaranteed cash flow distribution will equal 5% of that higher value. 2. Guarantee a 5% cash flow stream. The guaranteed annual cash flow distribution will be equal to 5% of the money initially invested, at a minimum. 3. Protect against a downturn. Even if poor market performance has caused the fund’s value to decline, the investor will still receive guaranteed cash flow distributions equal to 5% per annum of the initial investment. 13

14 The Active Portfolio – designed to optimize growth potential
Four underlying multi-manager, diversified mandates. CI Investment Consulting actively adjusts overall asset mix. Flexible investment mandates. Starting with a 70% equity exposure. G5|20 Series is a straightforward approach to mitigate retirement risks G5|20 Series focuses on ensuring the portfolio’s sustainable cash flow distribution levels and mitigating the risk of falling short.

In addition to strategies employed by the portfolio managers to grow asset value, G5|20 Series applies risk management strategies to ensure the fund meets the predefined annual cash flow distribution, by seeking to mitigate market risk in volatile markets while still providing market exposure.

17 Risk Management Overlay – systematic yet dynamic
Reduces volatility and lowers market exposure in downward trending markets. Incorporates equity risk, interest rates, volatility and time horizon to create a systematic yet dynamic hedging overlay to protect clients from downside. The strategy hedges the equity exposure. Enhances probability of client having a residual fund value after 25 years. Increases market exposure in upward trending markets. The strategy is designed to manage risk from overall equity market movements. Therefore, it is most efficiently executed against market indices. The strategy has been developed to augment or enhance the traditional Mean Variance Optimization framework. Under this new approach, the portfolio’s sustainable income levels and the risks of it coming up short are assessed daily and hedging strategies are applied to ensure it meets a predefined income target without significantly altering the portfolio’s long-term risk profile. We believe the addition of the Risk Management strategy to our traditional Mean Variance Optimization is more effective in delivering retirement income portfolios. 17

18 The Guarantee – bringing security to your client’s retirement cash flows
Bank of Montreal provides a guarantee to protect the fund’s annual cash flows of 5% over 20 years. Employs two fail-safes: In a worst case scenario where adverse market conditions cannot be contained preemptively by asset mix changes and the Risk Management Overlay. Assets will be moved into a Protection Portfolio designed to pay all guaranteed future cash flows from that moment forward. If there is a shortfall in the Protection Portfolio, the bank will guarantee full payment of all remaining cash flows to investors. You and your clients have an extra level of comfort and security, knowing that Bank of Montreal provides a guarantee to fully protect the fund’s annual cash flows of 5% over 20 years. If there is a worst-case scenario where adverse market conditions could not have been contained preemptively by the dynamic risk management overlay and asset mix changes, and the fund suffers a large loss, assets will be moved into a Protection Portfolio, which will be composed of fixed-income securities and is designed to pay all guaranteed future cash flows from that moment forward. If there is a shortfall in the Protection Portfolio, the bank will guarantee full payment of all remaining cash flows to investors. 18

19 What is CI T-Class? Provides regular, predictable monthly distributions Payments are 100% tax-free ROC A choice of over 30 funds from income to equity, PS, PSS, (UFC Evolution) Under the Corporate Class umbrella Fully customizable to provide extended tax savings No extra cost CI T-Class provides regular monthly distributions which are not dependant on current interest rates. Distributions are made up of tax-free return of capital which translates into more money in client’s pockets. With a choice of over 30 funds ranging from Income to Equities, investors of all risk levels can find an investment to fit their portfolios. CI’s T-Class are offered under the corporate class umbrella. This means that investors can change the funds within their portfolio at any time without causing a taxable disposition. Being part of the corporate class family also allows investors to accumulate assets over time in corporate class funds and then transition to the decumulation phase without having to change their asset mix or cause a disposition. T-Class is fully customizable, which means a cash flow can be designed to fit specific needs, provide the exact distribution required and potentially extend the ROC payout period beyond 30 years. All at no extra cost to clients.

20 Customized payout Investors may choose a customized rate based on the underlying T-Class funds A fixed percentage from 0.25% to 8% ($ CASH FLOW WILL VARY EVERY YEAR as NAV changes) Or A fixed dollar amount up to the maximum ROC payout Any ROC in excess of the requested amount is reinvested into the fund CI’s T-Class provides the ability to fully customize a ROC payout. Investors can choose between an annual percentage amount or fixed dollar amount. A fixed annual percentage can provide a ROC sustainability as the annual ROC distribution is always a factor of the previous year’s performance. In a declining market the annual ROC distributions will be paid out over a longer term since it will take longer to deplete the ACB.

21 Sales process Identify target markets
Select investment that fits your clients’ objectives and risk tolerance Choose from two target distributions: 5% or 8% Customize to fit your clients’ cash flow needs as required Sales Process Identify your clients who can benefit from the tax-efficiency of T-Class. These may be ones looking for cash flow. Select investments that best fit your clients’ objectives and need for income. Choose either a 5% or an 8% distribution level – or customize to fit client needs. 21

22 Target markets Non-registered investors looking for a tax-efficient source of cash flow Retirees seeking income, without triggering OAS clawback Investors looking to lower their marginal tax rate by combining T-Class with a SWP Pre-retirees in the accumulation stage Target Markets More than 1.2 million Canadians have maximized their RSPs. Nearly half of all Canadian families have assets in non-registered accounts, and there are billions sitting in bank deposits. Non-registered tax deferral vehicles are under utilized by most Canadians and many investors are paying tax when they don’t have to. T-Class helps lessen the tax burden. It is ideal for any investor looking to supplement the income from higher-taxed registered investments with T-Class’s non-registered cash flow for an overall lower tax rate. Since it is not considered income for tax purposes, it can help retired investors lower their taxable income and avoid triggering the Old Age Security (OAS) clawback. OAS clawbacks begin to kick in around $65,000 in net income and once retirees hit this level they can also lose out on other social benefits, such as GIS. For clients looking to lower their marginal tax rate by combining a custom T-Class payout with a traditional SWP. Pre-retirees currently accumulating assets in CI Corporate Class 22
